mander- n-chief of every employe in the
household, except The ladies' directly about
the person of The Queen, the religious staff
and the stable corps. He appears at court
on state occasions, and apr oints all his sub

the household, who receives 81, 200 year,
and has private secretary Mt a good sal

persons. Directly about her Majesty's

directly on the Queen come the gentlemen
Of the private household, viz: Eight lords
in waiting, as many grooms in waiting and
divers gentlemen ushers OF the privy cham
bcr, grooms of the privy chamber, grooms
of the great chamber and pages of the back
stairs. In short, life Mt the court, even in
the most ordinary times, is carried on with
tuch ponderous social machinery and
routine that it almost makes one tired to
hear OF it. But, in addition to all these,
there are two distinct sets of officials for
extraordinary occasions with Independent
functions and different codes of ceremoni-
al and etiquette. At the head Of one of
these is the marshal of the ceremonies. He
manages the etiquette on the state occa-
sions and conducts foreign ambassadors
to the Queens presence. The 9TH
er is the court of the Marshalsea, which
has legal jurisdiction of all crimes and mis-
demeanors committed within the Queens
private domain. 1t is regular court Of
justice, with the same general law as other
English courts, but with far more cere-
mony, and vastly more expense in pro-
portion to the work it does. The knight
marshal, who is the same as sheriff or po-
lice to this court, is a tolerably important
parsonage with 81, 500 year, and has eight
deputies. besides few servants and secre-
taries. The foregoing gives but mere out

About the only topic discussed in Lon

always with us, is the approaching Jubilee,
writes Mr.. Robert P. Porter from London.
Although have been in the country less
than week, the very word Jubilee has be-
come distasteful. Everything you buy Is
labeled Jubilee. Your suspenders, your
collars, your. cuffs, your cravats, your hat,
your toothbrush, have a crown and the
word Jubilee worked or painted upon them.
Columns Of the daily journals are devoted
to advertising word competitions and other
devices for extracting the pennies, the
shillings and the pounds from the
pockets of loyal people for Jubilee pur-
poses. The present may be termed a
period of assessment.

Heavy Shows In Oregon

Speaking of the great quantities of snow
which have fallen in the Cascade noun
tains during the past winter, an old resi-
dent of Portland said to n reporter: 81 have
lived nearly all my life in this city and
have generally observed the weather exper-
fenced every year. On the southwest side
of ST. Helcn's peak, near the summit q
small dark-biue spot has always been
plainly visible from here. This spot must
be either high cliff of rock or patch of
heavy timber. Winter and summer, as far
back MS can remember, that little speck
hns always been plainly in sight-a sort of
black oasis in a vast field of spotless snow
lining the sides and summit of the old
mountain. Just after that heavy fail of
snow which we had prior TO The general
clearing-up storm / noticed that the dark
spot on the peak had vanished from sight.
The circumstance madn quite an i'm
preston on my mind ut the tllna, nnd /
have kept close watch since, but the patch
has never reappeared until few days ago.
The warm, brigh. days have produced an
effect on the snow masses and lifted the icy
veil from that old and 10 my eye, familiar
speck. It's the first time inside of twenty
five years that it was buried from view.
Nothing, in my opinion, could have pro-
duced that result fut tremendous fall of
snow, and it must have descended all along
the range. ."-Poriland OreJonidn.

Tho queens Youngest Daughter.

Princess Beatrice, who has been tie
daily companion of her royal mother, and
who was married to Prince Battenburg q
year or so ago, is still the one person who
is nearest tc Englan6's ruler. She is a
thoroughly educated and ACCOMPLISHED
girl, and possesses more than usual ability
as an artist. Her life has been sinpularly
quiet and uneventful. For fifteen wears
past she has been the closest companion of
her mother, and the English people con-
slider her a martyr to maternal seltishness.
Beatrice is a favorite with the masses She
has been the not infreluent subject of such
gossip MS all women, and possibly all men,
delight TO hear. In 1877 she was reported
to have "falIen in love" with young man
who has since attained distinction as n
preacher. The eminent success of Canon
Duckworth in the church is attributed to
his having resisted the fascinations of the
Princess when engaged us one of her in
structors. There seems to be no question
that her marriage to the Prince Imperial of
France had been determined upon by the
mothers of the young people, who often
drank q dish of tea together. Among other
eligible men who are said TO have aspired
to the hand of this fair damsel when she
was younger than ste is now, are Prince
| Oscar of Sweden, Amadeus. late King of
Spain, and Louis of Battenburg, an elder
brother of her husband. The belief is gem
eral that but for the English law which
forbids marriage with deceased wife's
sister Prince Louis of Hesse, who had
been the husband of Queen yictoria's
daughter Alice, would have taken Beatrice
in second nuptials.

long and short haul clause of the law
in favor OF tho transcontnental railroad
lines. Iho firm of Sutton & Co. ara en-
gagged in clipper transportation around the
continent, and i'll behalf of the clipper
lines it is stated that tho transcontinental
roads have made war upon them. 1t is al
legged that the roads require shippers to enter
into contract to ship all overland freights by
rail, aud that inducements are held out to
contractors by offering lower rates on
freight than thono accorded the general
public In his letter Mr.. Sutton ex-
presses the belief that the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company is Interested with the
railroad companies In the effort to secure
suspension of tho fourth section OF the Law,
the object being to crush out The clipper-l line
